Please read these terms carefully. By downloading or using Burnbox, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the app.
1. Acceptance of Terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Burnbox iOS application ("App") made available by the Burnbox developer ("we," "our," or "us"). By accessing or using the App, you confirm that you are at least 13 years old, that you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms, and that you agree to be bound by them.
2. Description of the App
Burnbox is an iOS application that allows you to select photos from your device's photo library and permanently delete them through a simulated burning experience. The deletion of photos is intended to be a cathartic, final action. All processing occurs locally on your device.
Important: Photo deletion through Burnbox is permanent and irreversible within the app. Once burned, photos are removed from your iOS photo library. If iCloud Photos is enabled on your device, the deletion may propagate to iCloud and other connected devices in accordance with Apple's standard behavior. We are not responsible for recovering deleted photos.
3. Your Responsibilities
You are solely responsible for:
- Ensuring you have the right to delete any photos you choose to burn. Do not burn photos that belong to others without appropriate permission.
- Backing up any photos you wish to preserve before using the App. We strongly encourage you to review your selections carefully before confirming a burn.
- Your device's security, including keeping your iOS version and the App updated.
- Complying with all applicable local, state, national, and international laws in connection with your use of the App.
4. Photo Library Permission
To function, Burnbox requires access to your photo library. By granting this permission, you authorize the App to read photos you select and to delete those photos from your library upon your confirmation. You can revoke this permission at any time in your device's Settings app, though doing so will prevent the App from functioning.
5. In-App Purchases and Subscriptions
Burnbox offers a free tier with a limited number of burns per day, and a Premium upgrade available via in-app purchase through the Apple App Store. All purchases are:
- Processed by Apple and subject to Apple's Terms and Conditions.
- Non-refundable except as required by applicable law or Apple's refund policy.
- Tied to your Apple ID. If you use multiple devices with the same Apple ID, Premium access may be available on all of them.
To request a refund, contact Apple directly through the App Store. We do not process refunds directly.
6. Intellectual Property
The App, including its design, graphics, animations, audio, and underlying code, is the exclusive property of Burnbox and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or sublicense any part of the App without our prior written consent.
Your photos remain your property at all times. We claim no ownership over content from your photo library.
7. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS.
We make no representations about the completeness, accuracy, or reliability of any content in the App, including motivational quotes displayed after a burn.
8. Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BURNBOX AND ITS DEVELOPER SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF DATA (INCLUDING PHOTOS), ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE APP, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Our total liability to you for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve months preceding the claim, or $10 USD, whichever is greater.
9. Emotional Wellbeing
Burnbox is designed as a tool for personal closure and is not a substitute for professional mental health support. If you are experiencing significant emotional distress, we encourage you to reach out to a licensed mental health professional or a crisis support service in your area.
10. Termination
We reserve the right to discontinue the App or any part of it at any time without notice. These Terms remain in effect until terminated by either you or us. You may terminate these Terms at any time by deleting the App from your device.
11. Governing Law
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any disputes shall be resolved in a court of competent jurisdiction.
12. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the effective date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the App after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
